Hi im new to here had surgery 4th jan still not healing properly so radiotherapy has been postponed for the 2nd time x can't eat any healthier to help healing im so low
I’m sorry you are feeling so low. It’s natural to go through different stages as you go through your treatment. Remember to ask for help from those around you, your team who are supporting you and there is Macmillan plus you are right to use this forum!!! We are all here to help and support.
it must be awful for the radiotherapy to be postponed but they need to make sure you are well before they start the treatment: from what I’ve seen they won’t take any unnecessary risks.
let us know how you get on. Let us know if you get a date for radiotherapy and let us know if you feel any better soon.
have a think about what you could do to spoil yourself. Box set? Long long soak in the bath? Painting or drawing? Or sending messages to people you’ve not spoken to for ages. There are all things I do when I’m feeling low. Plus chocolate but I know that’s not part of the health eating plan ha ha.
take care and keep messaging
